Not able to connect to oracle 11g database source through OBI Server

Hi,
I am having an issue regarding the database connectivity.
Iam unable to connect to the oracle 11g database through OBI server. However its connecting through SQL Plus with same username/password@hoststring. Its giving the error as :
[nQSError: 17001]Oracle Error code:1017,message:ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied at OCI call OCILogon
[nQSError: 17014]Could not connect to Oracle database.
Please help me out in resolving the issue.

If it's working in one place and not the other then it's obviously not an OBIEE problem.
Are you typing it in right??
Do you have multiple tnsnames.ora files pointing to different databases, maybe sqlplus is picking up one and toad & OBIEE the other and so the username/pw is wrong for that database?
There's a limited amount that can be said to help, as the error is 100% clear what the problem is :) it's just working out whether you're connecting to the database that you think you are connecting to, and then whether the username & PW you're entering is correct for that DB.
BTW OBIEE 10.1.3.4 is supported with 11g, and we're using it without problem here.

Failover not working while connecting to Oracle 11g database

Hi,
We have a J2EE application that connects to Oracle 11g database.
The connection URL we are using is as below
jdbc:oracle:thin:@(DESCRIPTION =(SDU=32768)(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=abc.hostname.com)(PORT=1525))(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST= xyz.hostname.com)(PORT=1525))(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME=PQR)))
The issue that we are facing is, the database failover is not working.The application only connects to the first host in the TNS entry.Evertime there is a failure in the connection to the first host,manual steps are required to swap the hosts.
This started happening after we upgraded Oracle DB from 9i to 11g.
We are using the client jar of 9i to connect to 11g. Could this be causing the problem?
Thanks In Advance.

Yes, you are right. Nothing else was updated.
The application still works as expected except the failover.If you are correct then I seriously doubt it has anything to do with java. It would be something to do with Oracle and/or network infrastructure.
If not then it is some small problem with the driver. You can try updating the driver but I wouldn't expect a fix.

Not able to connect to oracle 11g using toad9.6

Hey...
I installed 11g on Win7- 64 bit. I'm able to connect to DB using Sql*plus and cmd prompt but when i try to connect through toad, it says no client installed.
I installed 11g with "Desktop class" option.
any suggestions ???

Hi,
1. If you have installed db and toad on the same machine, then the ORACLE_HOME of the database can be used as client.
2. But if you have installed Database on machine1 and you try to connect from laptop1 then on laptop1 client must be installed (to allow TNS communication).
In case 1 above, check installed clients in the window (Session -> New Connection) on TOAD and make sure it is not red. And define TNSNAMES.ORA in the same oracle home listed in installed clients.
In case 2 above, you must have to install a client to allow the communucation between toad and server.
Thanks

Not able to connect in Oracle 11g

I have done the installation of oracle 11g...when i am using sql command line to connect i am getting an error "oracle initialization or shutdown in progress" what to do??
I have provided the username as 'system' and password as the one providede during installation.Plzz help.

It may be the case, the database did not stop correctly.
Or it could be that the shutdown is still in progress. Perhaps rolling back uncommited transactions. There simply isn't enough information to make an informed suggestion.
Try out following.
sql:> sqlplus /nolog
sql> connect sys/manager as sysdba
The 'as sysdba' makes the 'sys/manager' pointless. You could just as well 'connect fubar/thisisnotmypassword as sysdba'.
sql>shutdown immediate
And if the previous shutdown did not work or is waiting on something, this one surely will not succeed.
sql> startup
sql> exit
While startup it may show error message like some of the parameter is missing. Note down that parameter and update in initSID.ora file.
Unless of course he's not using initSID. Most databases don't, anymore.

Not able to connect to Oracle B2B database after restart of my system

Hi
I am getting this problem. Because of this problem I reinstalled B2B in my system 4 times till now.
This time I want to resolve this problem instead of reinstalling.
1. I instsalled B2B successfully, able to conenc to database, done some configurations in Oracle B2B, everythign is fine.
2. Restarted my system, I have kept starting of this database process as automatic.
3. I stopped the metadatarepository and started again, when I am tryign to connec to B2B database it is giving the below error:
Listener refused the connection with the following error:
ORA-12514, TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor
The Connection descriptor used by the client was:
//B4b-5F-154-153Y.bdc4b.co.in:1521/orcl.bdc4b.co.in
I verified if it is taking the correct ORACLE_HOME for starting the database, it is correct,
I executed the below command:
lsnrctl seervices.
It is showing only the service, PLSExtProc. not the b2b database service: orcl.bdc4b.co.in.
tnsnames.ora is having the below two entries:
ORCL =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = B4b-5F-154-153Y.gdnindia.com)(PORT = 1521))

(CONNECT_DATA =

could anybody tell me what can be the problem.

Hi Praveena,
This appears to be issue database connectivity
You might want to check if the listener is up. Also check for the error code.
ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor
this might of use to you:
Suddenly getting ORA-12514
ORA-27101: shared memory realm does not exist

Forms 6i is not connecting with Oracle 11g database?

Forms 6i is not connecting with Oracle 11g database?
How to resolve this issue?

Hi,
Once you installed the Forms and Reports, you need to configure the paramters like tnsnames.ora in you path.
There will be one folder in the Installation path of Forms and Reports search for tnsnames.ora file..and you need to Updated the file as per the which ORACLE Server you are connecting and then try.. it..
Default path for forms will be "ORACLE_HOME/net80/admin".. search for tnsnames.ora and modify it..

Did you perhaps do a custom install? The DB software includes a version of sql developer and, by default, installs it in the sqldeveloper folder of the DB_HOME. Does that folder have sql developer in it?
I suggest that you NOT use the version of sql developer that ships with the database. That version will NOT be the current version.
Download the current version of SQL Developer, unzip it into a new folder and create a desktop icon for it.
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/sql-developer/downloads/index.html
The current version includes many, many bug fixes from that earlier DB version and you will have far fewer probems with it.

Not able to connect with Oracle server through VBScript without DSN

Hi
I have both Oracle9i and Oracle10g clients installed with local system.
I am able to connect to Oracle Database 11g Enterprise edition server though sqlplus through command prompt and also through AQT without any error.
As the server has lots of database ,whenever I connect to a particular database through sqlplus from command prompt,I connect as below
C:>sqlplus username/password@service_name
and it gets connected without any error.
When I am trying to connect the same database through VB Script,I am getting ORA-12560 TNS:Protocol Adaptor Error.
Below is the connection string I am using:
Database_String = "SERVER=xxxx.vvvn.Com;Driver={Oracle in OraHome92};DATABASE=service_name;user id=userid; password=passowrd"
I have installed a Oracle10g server in my local system and tried to connect the same way and I was successfully ,but its not working when the server is running remotely.
Does it make any difference with the version of driver being used ?Should I need to modify my connection string anyway.
Please help me as to identify the issue.Thank you very much in advance.

Error connecting to Oracle 11g Database

Hi All
I am testing .NET connectivity to Oracle 11g and I am not successful for a while.
I've tried to connect to database using library included in Oracle 10.2.0.3 Client and as a result I've got "invalid username or password" error. Then I've tried to use ORAC 11.1.0.5.10beta. I successfully connected to the server, but when I try to exec any query my program hangs.
Both of them work correctly with Oracle 9i database.
Also I've tried Microsoft .NET provider and it connects and executes queries fine (though 3 times slower).
How do you think what is reason or how can I find the reason?

Issue in Connecting to Oracle 11g Database

Hi,
I have installed Oracle 11g database using loopback adapter. (used ip 10.10.10.10). In the drivers file did the following entry
ipaddress computername.domainname.com computername
How can I connect to this database from other computer in the network ex:using sqldeveloper? (When I try it says "Network adapter couldnt establish the connection")
Thanks,
Ramesh

from other computer in the network Oracle version on that computer ?
Did you configure a connection string on that computer ? If so, please post your tnsnames.ora. If not, what did you do exactly ?
Also, from the server post the result of "lsnrctl stat".
